Sustainable Ventures works with investors, entrepreneurial managers and corporate partners to originate, build and grow businesses in the low carbon and sustainability sectors. Our current portfolio includes E-Car Club which created the UK's first crowdfunding exit in 2015 when Europcar acquired a majority stake; and Powervault which is seeking to disrupt the domestic electricity storage industry.

In 2017, the Company launched a new Sustainable Accelerator programme which will invest £800,000 into 6-8 start-ups.

The company also runs Sustainable Bridges, London's leading co-working space for start-up companies in the sector.
